Wholesaler Tom Son Ltd plans to develop its online ordering service.
It is hoped the system, which allows customers to order online, will soon provide seasonal and exotic produce information and help customers to manage their account via the website.
Financial director of the Buxton-based family firm Deb Thompson said: “It’s very straightforward; customers simply key in their requirements without having to submit a written order.”
The system has been developed by web designer Zero One and accounts package provider Innov8.
Tom Son Ltd handles 200 deliveries daily and has recently moved to larger premises to cope with increasing demand. Deb Thompson said: “When we started out we concentrated on fruit and vegetables, but we have diversified into others areas such as bread and dairy as our customers want to deal with just one supplier.”
